To anyone going to the strewn field this weekend: I will be driving to the area this Friday. On board I will have several cases of the 2003 meteorite wall calendar. If anyone is interested in buying a case of 150 calendarsfor $100, you will save a big shipping fee if you meet me there.

Dear List Members, The pricing of this new fall is getting ridiculous. Wholesale, dealers are now paying from $5.00 a gram to 110.00 a gram in the field thanks to the April fools joke that this material is planetary. We set up a network in Park Forest and surrounding areas before we left.

I would like to see the analysis of the microtektites. Since the meteorite smashed through a (probably asphalt shingled) roof, complete with tar, roofing pebbles, and any other debris accumulated there, they might be roofing-material tektites. I can't imagine enough heat being generated by

It might be an LL, and it is quite possible that one of the lithologies is a melt. Add to that some black shock veins and I'd say that $13.10/g is quite reasonable, especially for someone who's going to be the first kid on his block to own some Park Forest. John At 07:16 PM 4/2/03 -0700, Tom

Adam, List, It would stand to reason that if these are in fact a part of the fall, they will be magnetic, is this the case? If so, I would propose that they are remnants of the formation of the crust, that were caught up in the stones fall, following it to its destination, perhaps in an 'eddy'
